Default Are elephant ears bulbs still available around here?

I know I'm a bit late but today I tried Lowes and Home Depot in Durham and a local nursery and can't find elephant ears. Anybody know where else I might try? I'm in Chapel Hill. Thanks.

not caladium---reAL ELEPHAnt ears

I just got back from Lowes in Chapel Hill and saw that they have elephant ear bulbs in the half-price bulb bin--head to the back of the nursery, and you should see them. I got myself some dahlias. Hope it's not too late!

It's been about four weeks, but I bought mine at Walmart for $3. It's already sending up some healthy shoots. Will post pics this weekend!

I just came across reAL ELEPHAnt ear bulbs the other day at Barnes Supply Company on 9th Street in Durham (next to Elmo's Diner).

Sam's Club still has them, both individually (huge) and in a package (smaller).
